Can the Lions defense continue to dominate? They can but will they is a totally different thing. These are two of the best three teams in the CFL and should be a highly competitive game. In the end, I think the Bombers cover this game with a strong fourth quarter. Take the Bombers to win 27-17. Take the Bombers and give the 6 points.
